APC shoots, Says MEGA PARTY ALREADY doomed

All Progressives Congress (APC) shrugged with speculation that some of his governors and chiefs are discreetly promotion planned mega party, Action Democratic Party of Nigeria (ADP).

National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Bolaji Abdullahi said rumors that some APC chiefs are secretly funding and promotion of ADP did not cause the attention of the party and rejected by a wave of the hand.

"It's all hearsay, we did not talk about speculation," a former sports minister told news agencies. He added: "APC focuses on providing good governance to people, but does not listen to hearsays."
He described the APC as a big party and wondered why the key members go and promote the other. APC spokesman stressed that there was no report that any of the governors or leaders are engaged in anti-party activities for which it is said, support or finance new customers to reach.

He said that "there is no case against the activities of the parties on any of our governor and supporters that what you're talking about presents. It's all hearsay."

His words: "We do not feel threatened at all. I do not know where the name of the mega party suddenly came into the lexicon of politics in this country. When two people come together to meet, it is a mega meeting.

"We do not feel threatened, we will in fact encourage the mega party, because the gradual collapse of the PDP, we want a party that can make us sit up and be on our toes in terms of providing services to our people."

MEGA PARTY, Dead on arrival - Sule Lamido

Former Minister and immediate past governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, in its response to the emergence of a new party, said he was dead on arrival, because it is built on the issue.

"You see, to be honest with you, those who talk about the mega party are only counting the mood of the moment. They're just trying to indulge in a kind of self-help or what you call escapism. And they are even calling names, some even say that those who left the PDP to join the APC, they want to return to the PDP, but would prefer to return on different platforms, because they are probably ashamed to return to PDP. So, those of us who stayed back in the PDP are impudent ?

"Is APC mega party do? It can not work because it is a party that has no history, and hurried along, just for the purpose of elections. Formation drove anger. But the Nigerian problem is still there. It's been there before, but it will still be there. So, regardless of whether large or mega party, Nigeria problem is still there. the challenge is to confront.

"When you talk about change, Nigerians fell for it. Where is the change today? They said it was all under the PDP is evil, or so-called mega party, which is now in the Government for up evil. When Jonathan increased pump prices of gasoline for only N10, there was a protest at the forefront of Bukhari and APC chiefs, saying, subsidies for fuel is a scam. So, under Jonathan, because the PDP, the party of evil, evil is increasing too. But when Buhari has risen more than 100 percent over and above what Jonathan did, he said that because he comes from a devout person named Bukhari, if you go out to demonstrate, they should beat.

"Today, mega party has introduced a culture of coercion and intimidation, as an act of management. While, management needs to instill confidence, respect and trust, what we have today can not do it all. When you are afraid of leadership, there is a problem. There is no trust, no respect , there is no faith, because everything you do is based on fear, not out of love for the leadership. I fear, has its limit, because by the time you know what is called fear, you will not again fear. when you are in a relationship to be circumcised as boy, you're afraid. But after going through it, you discover that this is no big deal and no longer fear again. "I doubt that Nigerians will again be afraid of any mega party today. Two, not to indulge in self-help, I think we should right to face the challenge in the country and to solve it, because of what we've seen so far, problem solving does not require any mega gathering or a large party. Three, that customers will connect with the PDP to form a mega party? There is no partner to merge with, so the merger, the PDP is of it, "Sule Lamido who is willing to challenge the presidential election in 2019 was declared.
